I agree, it doesn't add up. I think you've hit the spot there.

One of the things i could see (and as far as i've seen/read on other threads) , is that loosing the center inlet , with an impingement_based block, kills part of the performance.

And everyone knows , as blocks tend to be very close in performance, misreads and errors (or even some fluke) tend to get an exponential boost. And give wrong results.

But that's just me.
